The numbered headers option (which obviously should be off by *default*)
is great, I use it all the time. If the developers have forgotten about it,
then that's only because they don't read my posts to the mailing list
or SourceForge.
The auto-number preference is still there, but
doesn't work, it
seems. As an old tech writer I can easily imagine situations where it
might be useful, or at least I can imagine readers who would prefer
it. But I don't think it's all that important.
Why do you say that it doesn't work?
It has one bug (IMO), in that it doesn't turn itself on
unless there are headers of different sizes in the same article.
Otherwise it works for me.
